One Baptism, One Hope in God's Call
A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDING OFFICERS OF THE GENERAL CONVENTION Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ: As your Presiding Officers we appointed the Special Commission on the Episcopal Church and the Anglican Communion late in 2005. The Special Commission was asked to prepare the way for a consideration by the 75th General Convention of recent developments in the Episcopal Church and the Anglican Communion with a view to maintaining the highest degree of communion possible. They have admirably discharged this very weighty task. With our deep thanks to them we commend their report to you. Here we would like to make three observations. First, though this document is a beginning point for legislative decisions—and indeed includes eleven resolutions—it is first and foremost a theological document. Its primary focus is on our understanding of our participation as members of the Anglican Communion in God’s Trinitarian life and God’s mission to which we are called. Second, the report is intended as the beginning point for a conversation that will take place in Columbus under the aegis of the Holy Spirit. That is, it is intended to start the conversation and not conclude it: the Commission has seen itself as preparing the General Convention to respond in the wisest possible ways. Again, we thank the members of the Special Commission who have been servants of this process of discernment. Third, following up on the careful work done by the Commission, the General Convention is now invited into the Windsor Process and the further unfolding of our common life together in the Anglican Communion. -
Christian Public Ethics Sagepub.Co.Uk/Journalspermissions.Nav Tjx.Sagepub.Com Robin Gill
Theology 0(0) 1–9 ! The Author(s) 2015 Reprints and permissions: Christian public ethics sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav tjx.sagepub.com Robin Gill This special online issue of Theology focuses upon Christian public ethics or, more specifically, upon those forms of Christian ethics that have contributed sig- nificantly to public debate. Throughout the 95 years of the journal’s history, there has been discussion about public ethics (even if it has not always been named as such). However, Christian public ethics had a particular flourishing between 1965 and 1975, when Professor Gordon Dunstan (1918–2004) was editor. When I became editor of Theology in January 2014, I acknowledged at once my personal debt to Gordon. He encouraged and published my very first article when I was still a postgraduate in 1967, and several more articles beyond that. And, speaking personally, his example of deep engagement in medical ethics was inspirational. When he died, The Telegraph noted the following among his many achievements: He was president of the Tavistock Institute of Medical Psychology and vice-president of the London Medical Group and of the Institute of Medical Ethics. During the 1960s he was a member of a Department of Health Advisory Group on Transplant Policy, and from 1989 to 1993 he served on a Department of Health committee on the Ethics of Gene Therapy. From 1990 onwards he was a member of the Unrelated Live Transplant Regulatory Authority and from 1989 to 1993 he served on the Nuffield Council on Bioethics. (19 January 2004) The two most substantial ethical contributions that I have discovered in searching through back issues of Theology were both published when he was editor and were doubtless directly encouraged by him. -

Diet – Diocese in Europe Times No
Diet – Diocese in Europe Times No. 9 MAY 2017 An e-bulletin of news, information and notes for clergy and lay leaders in the Diocese. ALL HUMAN LIFE IS HERE . That was at one time the banner headline of the now defunct News of the World newspaper. This edition of our occasional newsletter from the Communications Committee, with input from Brussels and London offices, tries to reflect most areas of human church life to keep Clergy, Readers and Lay Leaders, Churchwardens, Secretaries and Treasurers updated about news and developments in our diocese. As usual it includes some items which may have appeared on our website news pages as well as matters of more domestic interest to churches and chaplaincies. The e-newsletter can be read on screen and need not be printed out. Any material may be copied and included in church newsletters or magazines. Feel free to forward it to anyone in your congregation who would appreciate its contents. If you have information about courses, events or useful links for materials which could usefully be shared please contact [email protected] for inclusion in our next edition. PLEASE TELL US - SO WE CAN BE BANG UP TO DATE The Annual Parochial Church Meeting (APCM) held in our churches in March and April have been held. Clergy and church members are probably breathing a sigh of relief that it is over for another year. Wardens, Treasurers, Safeguarding Officers and other officers have been appointed. This year too is election year for Archdeaconry / Deanery Synods where Chaplaincies and congregations have elected their lay representatives to serve for three years, with effect from 1st June 2017. -

Prayer Diary – July-September 2018
Prayer Diary – July-September 2018 This diary has been compiled to help us pray together for one another and our common concerns. It is also available on the diocesan website www.europe.anglican.org, both for downloading and for viewing. This should be updated as new appointments and other changes are announced. A daily prayer update is sent via Twitter on the diocesan account @DioceseinEurope Each chaplaincy, with the communities it serves, is remembered in prayer once a quarter, following this weekly pattern: • Eastern Archdeaconry: Monday, Saturday • Archdeaconry of France: Tuesday, Saturday • Archdeaconry of Gibraltar: Wednesday, Saturday • Italy & Malta Archdeaconry: Friday • Archdeaconry of North West Europe: Thursday • Swiss Archdeaconry: Friday • Archdeaconry of Germany and Northern Europe • Nordic and Baltic Deanery: Monday • Germany: Saturday On Sundays, we pray for subjects which affect us all (e.g. reconciliation, on Remembrance Sunday), or which have local applications for most of us (e.g. the local cathedral or cathedrals). This will include Diocesan Staff, Churches in Communion and Ecumenical Partners. SUNDAY INTERCESSIONS should, by tradition, include prayer for Bishop Robert and the local Head of State by name. In addition, prayers may also include Bishop David (the Suffragan Bishop) and, among the heads of other states, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the leaders of other countries represented in the congregation.

We are a Mission-shaped diocese – a network of Christian communities and It is a year that has been deeply challenging. One country – Greece – has been almost congregations serving Anglicans and overwhelmed by the political and economic consequences of debt. Another country – France – has suffered a year framed by terrorism, from Charlie Hebdo to Bataclan. And other English-speaking Christians, nearly every country in the diocese has been affected by the vast movement of peoples working together to build up the that we call ‘the migration crisis’.

Alcohol, Addiction and Christian Ethics
This page intentionally left blank ALCOHOL, ADDICTION AND CHRISTIAN ETHICS Addictive disorders are characterised by a division of the will, in which the addict is attracted both by a desire to continue the addictive behaviour and also by a desire to stop it. Academic perspectives on this predicament usually come from clinical and scientific standpoints, with the ‘moral model’ rejected as outmoded. But Christian theology has a long history of thinking and writing on such problems and offers insights which are helpful to scientific and ethical reflection upon the nature of addiction. Christopher Cook reviews Christian theological and ethical reflection upon the problems of alcohol use and misuse, from biblical times until the present day. Drawing particularly upon the writings of St Paul the Apostle and Augustine of Hippo, a critical theological model of addiction is developed. Alcohol dependence is also viewed in the broader ethical perspective of the use and misuse of alcohol within communities. christopher c. h. cook is Professorial Research Fellow in the Department of Theology and Religion, Durham University, England and a consultant psychiatrist. He is co-author of The Treat- ment of Drinking Problems, 4th edn (2003). new studies in christian ethics General Editor: Robin Gill Editorial Board: Stephen R. L. Clark, Stanley Hauerwas, Robin W. Lovin Christian ethics has increasingly assumed a central place within academic theology. At the same time the growing power and ambiguity of modern science and the rising dissatisfaction within the social sciences about claims to value-neutrality have prompted renewed interest in ethics within the secular academic world. There is, therefore, a need for studies in Christian ethics which, as well as being concerned with the relevance of Christian ethics to the present-day secular debate, are well informed about parallel discussions in recent philosophy, science or social science. -
Liberation Theology: Second Edition Edited by Christopher Rowland Frontmatter More Information
Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-68893-2 - The Cambridge Companion to: Liberation Theology: Second Edition Edited by Christopher Rowland Frontmatter More information THE CAMBRIDGE COMPANION TO LIBERATION THEOLOGY Liberation theology is widely referred to in discussions of politics and religion but not always adequately understood. The new edition of this Companion brings the story of the movement’s continuing importance and impact up to date. Additional essays, which complement those in the original edition, expand upon the issues by dealing with gender and sexuality and the important matter of epistemology. In the light of a more conservative ethos in Roman Catholicism, and in theology generally, liberation theology is often said to have been an intellectural movement tied to a particular period of ecumenical and political theology. These essays indicate its continuing importance in different contexts and enable readers to locate its distinctive intellectual ethos within the evolving contextual and cultural concerns of theology and religious studies. This book will be of interest to students of theology as well as to sociologists, political theorists and historians.
